Home Sweet Home
Good evening! And I have returned from my holiday trip in Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Macau. 'Twas a splendid trip and I had quite a bit of fun. Hong Kong is indeed shoppers' paradise. All I did there aside from sight-seeing was to mai dong xi, chi dong xi. It was madness man. There was a street called Ladies' Street (nu ren jie) and after about 3 long hours, I emerged from the street with my arms loaded with bags. Congee and dim sum there is absolutely superb.
On the 3rd day, we went to Shenzhen via the train, en route New Territory. We spent two days in Shenzhen sight-seeing and of course, shopping.
We left for Macau on the 5th day and I have never seen so many casinos in my entire life. According to the tour guide, Macau is 28 square km in size. And there is a total of 28 casinos in Macau. That's like one casino per square km. Awed.
We went back to Hong Kong on the 6th day and headed straight for Disneyland. I sat Space Moutain like 3 frickin' times. Quite thrilling. Haha. But um, the Disneyland was kind of small, compared to the one in L.A. that is. Cos I went to Disneyland L.A. from 7am - 12 midnight, and I couldn't finish walking the whole place. But it was still great la. I watched nearly all the musicals in there and they were great! The Disney parade was awesome as well.
We left Disneyland at about 7pm and checked into our hotel: Disneyland Hollywood Hotel. It was frigging AWESOME!! There were mickeys everywhere! Mickey Restaurant, Mickey shower curtains, Mickey shampoo bottles, Mickey bathroom slippers, Mickey benches, Mickey this, Mickey that. Even the train to Disneyland has Mickey windows and Mickey handles!! Absolutely enchanting. My sister and I was going insane down there, snapping pictures away like raving lunatics.
Awesome. I was nearly unable to close my luggage on the day to return home. I had to open the luggage extension. Haha. And oh yes! I watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest on the way to Hong Kong on the plane. It was SO frickin' hilarious I laughed out loud on the plane. I think the other passengers must have thought me insane. But it was a good movie. Johnny Depp is the coolness, man.
And now that I'm back, it's all the hustle and bustle in the preparation of... CHRISTMAS!! Yesterday I watched Eragon with Adam. The movie was not bad, but of course as usual, the novel had much more details. Then I bought 2 VCDs: Tarzan and Cinderella. I spent the night watching both of them. Tarzan was REALLY nice!! Phil Colins rocked too! Music was awesome, story was awesome. Cinderella makes me all dreamy and floaty; prince charming and all that stuff yeah =D
Deck the halls with boughs of holly! Fa la la la la, la la la la.
